Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Breconshire

We have a range of detailed maps for towns and villages in Breconshire or Brecknockshire, and we also cover the whole county at the Inch to the Mile scale. Here are the details.

The following maps are all taken from the OS 25" maps and reduced to a scale of approximately 15 inches to the mile.
They are extremely detailed, showing individual houses, details such as railway tracks, pathways,
pubs, factories and even minutiae such as fountains and signal posts. Each map includes an introduction.
All maps are available from our On-line Mapshop.

We are also publishing a series of Inch to the Mile maps, which now cover
the whole of Wales. Visit the One Inch page for full details and index maps; the following are the principal sheets for Brecknockshire:
